[QUOTE="StrayBullitt, post: 15620808, member: 181759"] Just did a clutch on a GT this past weekend, You will definitely thank yourself later if you get yourself a transmission jack. It just makes it easier getting the angle right so the transmission lines up and goes back in easily. Just a few tips I can remember off the top of my head.. sorry if others have already touched on these.... a wobbly impact 13mm is really helpful on the bell housing bolts mark your driveshaft's position on the differential flange, this is so it get's re-installed exactly back in factory position. Drain your transmission before you remove so it doesn't spill fluid out the back when you drop it down. Might as well change the fluid anyway. WD40 all the exhaust studs a little before hand and the transmission dowels, trans should come off a little easier. I don't know if the Cobra has a spacer between the engine and trans, but GT does and I like to tack it in place with either a dab of rtv or put a punch in it near the dowels, just to keep it in place. Good luck ! [/QUOTE]
